Notes for reading this pattern:

1. Stitches without a number = 1 stitch. Example: sc, dc, sc = 1 sc, 1 dc, 1 sc.
2. A number followed by a stitch, needs to be worked over that number of stitches.
Example: “6 dc” means 1 dc in each of the next 6 stitches.
3. “Repeat from * X times” means to repeat all stitches written ‘after’ the asterisk (*)
until the word ‘repeat’ (as a set) for X number of times specified.
4. Sometimes “space” may be written as “sp”... as in “sc in next ch-5 sp.”
